              CML CHURCH MORTGAGE TRUST
                1990 RATED SERIES A-1

      Notes to Financial Statement (Unaudited)

(1) Basis of Presentation

The financial statement included herein has been prepared without audit
     by Christian Mutual Life Insurance Company ("CML"), the servicer
     of the mortgage loans, on behalf of the M&I First National Bank,
     Trustee of the CML Church Mortgage Trust 1990 Rated Series A-1
     ("Trustee").

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
     financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to
     rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
     although CML believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
     information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that these
     condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the
     financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Trust's
     latest annual report on Form 10K.

On January 1, 1995 the Trust adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board
     Statement No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
     Loan, which requires that creditors value all loans for which it
     is probable that the creditor will be unable to collect certain
     amounts due according to the terms of the loan agreement at the
     present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the
     loan's effective interest rate, or observable market price of the
     impaired loan or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is
     collateral dependent.  Management believes that loan carrying
     values and loan loss reserves provided in this 10-Q Filing comply
     with the requirements of this Statement.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.

Results of Operations

Third Quarter 1998 vs. Third Quarter 1997

The Trust redeemed $1,135,909 and $119,980 of mortgage pass-through
     certificates during the third quarter of 1998 and 1997,
     respectively. The distributions were made from principal payments
     received on the mortgage loans.

First Nine Months 1998 vs. First Nine Months 1997

The Trust redeemed $2,981,803 and $1,938,425 of mortgage pass-through
     certificates during the first nine months of 1998 and 1997,
     respectively.  The distributions were made from principal payments
     received on the mortgage loans.

The Trust received $275,494 and $493,122 of distributions allocable to
     interest on the mortgage loans during the third quarter of 1998 and
     1997, respectively.  The lower interest income for 1998 is
     attributed to the lower principal balances of mortgages outstanding
     due to mortgage amortization and mortgage loan principal
     prepayments.  These prepayments result in lower net income because
     the profit produced by the differences in the interest rate
     collected on the mortgage loans and the rate paid to bondholders
     decreases as mortgage loans are prepaid.  Prepayments also increase
     the charge in the period of prepayment for amortization of deferred
     issuance costs, which occurs over the life of the outstanding
     bonds.

As of May 1, 1994 the lockout period for mortgage loan prepayment had
     expired for all mortgage loans in the 1990 Rated Series A-1 pool.
     Because the interest rate on the mortgage loans in the pool is
     higher than the prevailing rates for similar loans, prepayments on
     principal on the mortgage loans are likely to occur. Seventeen
     mortgage loans with outstanding balances totaling $17,387,137 had
     been prepaid as of September 30, 1998.  These proceeds from
     prepayment were used to make principal payments on Class A mortgage
     pass-through certificates.  Although $17,387,137 of prepayments
     have been received to date, no assurance can be given as to the
     rate of prepayments on the mortgage loans pledged as security for
     the mortgage pass-through certificates, and therefore no assurance
     can be given as to the amount and timing of redemptions of mortgage
     pass-through certificates or the time that any particular mortgage
     pass-through certificate will remain outstanding prior to its
     stated maturity.

Management of Christian Mutual Life Insurance Company (CML), as servicer
     of the loans, is closely monitoring two loans with recorded
     balances totaling $1,083,775 at September 30, 1998.  Management is
     concerned with the ongoing ability of the borrowers to meet debt
     service requirements.  One of the loans with a recorded balance of
     $849,075 has been recorded in accordance with Financial Accounting
     Standard Board Statement No. 114 based on the value of the
     underlying loan collateral less costs of disposal.  For the other
     loan with an outstanding principal balance of $234,700, management
     presently believes that the principal balance and accrued interest
     should be fully recoverable in the event of default.

The church building and property securing the loan with a recorded balance
     of $849,075 at September 30, 1998, which is included in the amount
     of closely monitored loans as previously discussed, are located
     near the south central section of Los Angeles, California, the
     scene of civil unrest on April 29, 1992 and an earthquake on
     January 17, 1994.  Management established a loan loss reserve of
     $652,422 and $258,698 in 1994 for foregone interest at December 31,
     1994.

With respect to this loan, the church's sanctuary had been damaged by the
     earthquake. The church reported that it had originally obtained a
     loan from the Small Business Administration for $607,700 at 4%
     interest to assist in reconstruction of the sanctuary.  The church
     also reports the permitting process is completed. Four contractors
     have submitted bids each in excess of $1,100,000.  The church has
     informed the company that the SBA has approved its request to
     borrow additional funds, for a total SBA loan amount of $1,278,200.
     The treasurer reports that a possible sale of the property to Magic
     Johnson Construction Company is being negotiated.  This could lead
     to a pay off of the mortgage by year-end if negotiations are
     successful.  Meanwhile, the church has completed the rehab of the
     sanctuary.  The treasurer has assured management that weekly drafts
     will be honored.  The church reports that the summertime is
     difficult for collections; however, the treasurer has communicated
     his and the church's hope that the momentum created by the
     construction of the sanctuary will stabilize giving.

Although it was reported that the sanctuary rehab was completed, there are
     additional items that must be finished before a certificate of
     occupancy is issued.  Meetings have been conducted in the sanctuary
     pending the issuance of the certificate, however, the church
     reports that it owes $100,000 to the sub-contractor and it needs
     an additional $100,000 to complete all items on the certificate.
     The church has applied for an additional $200,000 from the SBA
     which has been rejected.  They are appealing that decision.
     Meanwhile work has been halted on completion of the remaining
     items.

On March 7, 1997, the treasurer proposed a new payment schedule for a
     twelve month period.  The schedule provides for a weekly draft of
     $4,500 for a monthly payment of $19,500.  Additional drafts of
     $10,000 on March 11, $13,800 on April 11, $13,800 on May 11 and
     $10,000 on June, July, August and September 11 will enable payments
     to be current at the $19,500 per month level.  The additional draft
     for April 11 was successfully completed on April 24.  The
     additional draft for May 11 in the amount of $13,800 was returned
     for insufficient funds.  The additional drafts for $10,000 for
     June, July and August have not been completed.

Weekly drafts of $4,500 continue to be returned for insufficient funds.
     The treasurer reports that although the number of people has
     increased from 450 to 1,000, the offerings have remained the same.
     The church is planning on a major giving campaign as well as two
     concerts to aggressively address their giving shortfall. Advising
     the people of financial needs is a departure from their usual
     practice. The treasurer is confident the people will respond to the
     plea.  The cumulative past due interest as of November 1, 1998 is
     $286,178.

On February 17, 1998, the treasurer reported that the City Council has
     approved the necessary GAP financing required and finalized the
     contracts with Magic Johnson/McFarlance Urban Partner, Group.
     Negotiation for acquisition began in March 1998.  It is estimated
     that a payoff could occur by January 1999.  Meanwhile, construction
     activities remain halted pending FEMA issues.  On August 17, 1998,
     the treasurer reported that negotiations for acquisition are
     proceeding as planned.  On October 29, 1998 the treasurer reported
     that an initial offer was refused by the Church and an apology for
     the offer was made.  The Church was assured that any future offers
     will be equitable.

With respect to the loan with a recorded balance of $234,700, the church
     has not been able to make complete monthly payments since April 1,
     1996 and is presently in arrears.  The company is presently
     communicating with the church in efforts to bring the payments
     current.  Management, although concerned with the ongoing ability
     of the church to meet the monthly payment, continues to believe all
     principal and interest are recoverable in the event of default.
     A site visit in April 1998 by the servicer found the property in
     good repair and recently painted.

Through September 30, 1998 the Trust has experienced total payment
     shortfalls of $645,117.  This shortfall represents principal and
     interest payments due to bondholders, but not yet disbursed because
     mortgage payments received by the Trust are not adequate to cover
     these debt service payments.  The total amount of interest accrued
     but not recorded at September 30, 1998 is $295,364.

In assessing the recoverability of loan balances, management evaluates
     factors relevant to the borrower's financial condition and obtains
     updates of original appraisals when considered necessary.  The
     Trust has recorded a general loan loss reserve of $200,000 which
     is specifically related to the loans which collateralize the
     mortgage pass-through certificates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Trust has no fixed assets nor any commitments outstanding to purchase
     or lease any fixed assets.

Each class of certificates was structured in a manner that such funds
     received from the related mortgage loans would be sufficient to
     fund all interest and principal payments on the certificates, and
     all other expenses of the Trust.  Shortfalls discussed in note 2
     were not anticipated in cash flow projections at the time the pool
     was formed.  Because of these matters, the Trust has not made
     $242,801 of scheduled principal and interest payments to date on
     the senior and subordinated mortgage pass-through certificates.
     Additionally, no assurances can be given as to the amount of
     shortfalls of principal and interest on loans in default which may
     occur in the future.  The certificates represent an interest in the
     Pool created pursuant to the Pooling Agreement and do not represent
     an interest in or obligation of, and are not guaranteed by the
     Company, CML, the Underwriter or any other affiliate of the
     Company, or any other person or entity other than the Pool created
     pursuant to the Pooling Agreement.  Distributions of interest on
     the certificates and amounts in reduction of outstanding amount of
     the Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D Certificates will be made
     from the assets held by the Trustee under the Pooling Agreement
     (primarily the mortgage loans and principal and interest payments
     thereon) and there will be no other source of funds for such
     distributions.

Year 2000 Compliance

By the end of 1999, the Company expects that its various administrative
     systems will have the capability to process transactions dated
     beyond 1999.  The costs to complete the Company's efforts to modify
     or replace such systems are not expected to be material.
